E3 2018 (9th June - 15th June)

[Scarlett.]

The floor plans are out, and by the look of it, Sony, Square, and Bethesda have some big announcements. Microsoft's booth is... VERY small.

Rumoured games for this year are

Starfield (Think Fallout/TES but in space)
Final Fantasy XVI
Saints Row 5
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Resident Evil 2 Remake
The Last of Us Part II

[rk3388]

Nintendo will probably show Fire Emblem, Metroid and Pokemon, but surprised because the space for them looks smaller than last year

[Tom4784]

Rumoured games for this year are

Starfield (Think Fallout/TES but in space)
Final Fantasy XVI

Not sure on any others just yet.

I'd be surprised, I think FFVII will be the main draw of SE's showing this year, I can't imagine them announcing XVI until work on XV ends and VII and KH3 are released.

[Scarlett.]

They'd have to bring KH3 out first which wont be til 2019, then Nomura could work on VII Remake, which, going by his schedule would arrive sometime in the 2020s, its also a multiple part game. I'm hoping we see XVI before VII Remake tbh lol

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

shadow of the tomb raider is coming!

A lot of the rumours are saying that (and I think one of the VII Devs have hinted at) FFVII will be reintroduced at E3 since production was moved back to inhouse.

In all honesty, I think we'll be seeing KH3 release late this year, November or Decemberish. They'll announce the release date at E3 and we'll see a blitz of publicity between that announcement and release. Next year will be FFVII's year as well as XIV's given that the new expansion is likely to come out next year as well.

It'll be XVI that we won't see until 2020, I think. I think it'll get announced next year but it won't be released until 2020. Hell, the way it's going they'll probably still be supporting XV by then :laugh:.

[Tom4784]

shadow of the tomb raider is coming!

Perched.

[Marches]

Hyped for Pokemon on the switch they can’t possibly push the hardware of the ds any further it was having frame rate problems as it is

[user104658]

If FFXVI is before 2021 I'll be legitimately shocked.
Of course, that doesn't mean they won't announce it... Then delay it forever.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

i honestly can’t even bothered attempting to get into final fantasy bc it’s so confusing like i just don’t get IT

all this XIV.05 nonsense

[Scarlett.]

Every numbered title is completely seperate, you could pick up XV without ever having played the previous 14 games. XIV is different as it is an MMO and continuously updates over time.

I do hope VII Remake is out next year, but Nomura's games are infamously slow.

[Tom4784]

It's not confusing unless you consider counting from 1 to 15 hard :hmph:

General rumour is, this will be XVI

im praying for some details on Bayo 3 and maybe Pokemon Switch :flutter:

FFXVI would be welcome too

I was thinking this the other day. I think we will probably get some details on Bayonetta 3 at least.....hopefully.

Pokemon Switch, new Mario game?

[Ant.]

I was thinking this the other day. I think we will probably get some details on Bayonetta 3 at least.....hopefully.

I'm hoping for a trailer and/or gameplay :flutter: but what are the chances of that?

[LukeB]

I'm hoping Super Smash from the switch will be announced?

[Ant.]

I'm hoping Super Smash from the switch will be announced?

Maybe? Melee was released in 2001 and Brawl was announced in 2005... even if production hadn't even started:joker:

That said we only got an announcement for the Wii u and 3ds games in 2013, 5 years after brawl

If We are to get a new smash, I'm sure at the latest itd be released next year. That said there's so much content that I believe sm4sh could be the last game of the series

[Tom4784]

I think it's more likely that they'll port Smash 4 to the Switch with all the previous DLC included and possibly add one or two new characters on top of that.

If that's the case then I DEMAND THESE QUEENS.

I think that's likely although not at this E3, Lost Legacy really did feel like they were setting those two up to be the new leads.

[Ant.]

given the announcement of Smash4Switch (which seems to be a new smash entirely but i need to rewatch the trailer), I think it's safe to say we may get some gameplay at E3

Only if it's better than Bioshock Infinite

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

don’t you dare come for her :nono:

[Scarlett.]

lol, I just found it disappointing, the premise was great, but about an hour or two into it, it just seemed like a bland shooter. The original gameplay for it looked a lot more fun.

[rk3388]

https://i.imgur.com/FFQyEtT.gif

YES!!! I hope so. I just finished Lost Legacy yesterday actually and loved the dynamic between those two characters. If they developed a story with Chloe, Nadine, Sam and one of Sully or Cutter I would be perfectly okay with that!

[Maru]

RE2 Remake :love:... I chased the UPS driver down my street for that game

[user104658]

I dunno, I wasn't a huge fan of the Resi1 remake to be honest. I'd much rather have a full 4k Resi4 remake / remaster.

[Scarlett.]

It's hard to remaster RE2, because of how low res everything was back in those days.

[Smithy]

Omg ahhhh new saints row

[Tom4784]

Resident Evil Remake was a masterpiece :nono:

[Scarlett.]

Omg ahhhh new saints row

Could be a year or two away, but hopefully it's on its way. To be honest, I kinda enjoy Saints Row more than GTA these days, I'm liking games where you create a character more than ones with set characters. Hopefully SR5 will finally leave Steelport behind, and maybe head back to Stilwater?

[Tom4784]

I don't want another Saints' Row unless it involves ****ing up history with Jane Austen.

Didn't Gat out of Hell end in a sort of reboot situation? I guess its still doable though, lol

[Tom4784]

There was not a single game I cared for! I'm pretty sure it's Bethesda and Microsoft's turns tomorrow so I hope they'll be better.

[rk3388]

That was awful :joker: When the two games that interested me most weren't made by EA themselves (Sea of Solitude and Unravel 2). Still haven't made my mind up about Anthem.

[Tom4784]

(waits patiently for MK11 to be announced)

[Rob!]

When’s Spyro on?

[Brother Leon]

I’m just here for the The Last Of Us 2. Can’t wait for Sony.

[Tom4784]

I'm perched for Nintendo but Sony should be qt. Square Enix's conference will be good due to the KH3 news and there's strong rumours behind a resurgence for VII remake but I dont see it, not while SE is pushing KH3.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Kinda hoping bethesda will reveal something to confirm that the dishonored franchise isn’t dead :bawling: like even if it’s just a ****ing logo or something and we don’t get a trailer until 2020 idc i just want her to live

[Scarlett.]

Bethesda and Microsoft today!

[Tom4784]

I'll be watching both since I expect more than a few multiplatform games will be announced at Microsoft's.

I don't really care for the new Fallout so hopefully Bethesda's got some surprises up their sleeve.

[Mystic Mock]

That was awful :joker: When the two games that interested me most weren't made by EA themselves (Sea of Solitude and Unravel 2). Still haven't made my mind up about Anthem.

EA are good at Sports Games, but even then they've botched them up with the online obsession that the company has.

They need to have a rethink at EA on what makes quality Gaming.

[Tom4784]

Microsoft's isn't bad so far. I only really care about Tomb Raider thus far but it's been entertaining at least.

[Tom4784]

Devil May Cry 5 looks....Trash?

[Scarlett.]

It looks more like DmC than the main series

[Tom4784]

I didn't like DMC4 so I don't care for another game that features Nero and the southern woman grated on me already.

DmC2 got dropped for THAT?!

[BBfanUSA]

Really surprised that the west is getting the PS3 Port for Tales of Vesperia after all these years.

(There's an actual difference compared to the original 360 game where the main rival/ally properly joins the party and there's a original pirate girl that wasn't in the original game at all that joins up as well)

[rk3388]

I only watched the highlights for the Multiplatform games (don't own Xbox One) but it seemed better than the usual Microsoft conference? Highlights for me were Cyberpunk 2077, Battletoads announcement, Kingdom Hearts 3, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, We Happy Few, Fallout 76, New Ori game and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Most are multiplat but at least from what I heard it was a more constant stream of games than past presentations focused on bragging about their specs

[Scarlett.]

They've actually got some studios now, word is the Forza Horizon studio is also working on Fable IV

[Tom4784]

I could not care less about Sekiro tbh, I'm over Dark Soul Styled games.

[Tom4784]

Bethesda's press conference is like a ****ing fever dream. I don't know what's happening.

[Tom4784]

NAWT Bethesda being a snooze for an hour and half and then snatching my wig in the last two minutes?

[Shaun]

I've never played any of them and even I just gasped when I saw Elder Scrolls VI :o

[rk3388]

Sorry to rain on your parades, but they did say Starfield was NEXT GEN, and that ES6 was going to come out after that. I think we get these games in 2020/2021

[Tom4784]

Square Enix - Waste of time.

Ubisoft - ENOUGH DANCING.

[Tom4784]

Starlink looked cute...until they revealed it was a toy game.

[Tom4784]

Omg Star Fox. Okay, colour me interested.

[Scarlett.]

Really liking the look of Assassins Creed Odyssey, Origins was a good start to the reinvention of the series.

[rk3388]

So far this E3 has been pretty meh, especially because I enjoyed last years quite a bit. I think this E3 is Nintendo's to lose because I know almost nothing of what they are working on other than Smash Bros, Pokemon and a Yoshi game. Also depends if Playstation has any new announcements with I'm skeptical about with the next generation looming

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, I get the feeling this years and maybe next years are gonna feel lacking (depending on when the PS5 and Nextbox are announced)

[Scarlett.]

[Tom4784]

RE2 was a sensational reveal but that was the only good part of the show tbh.

TLOU2 was fine, Ghost looks decent, Spiderman just looks like a more colourful Arkham game and Death Stranding is just overhyped trash.

Not a very exciting show aside from RE2.

[rk3388]

OK I'm relatively happy with Sony's conference. I thoroughly enjoyed 3 of 4 of the focused games and am glad we didn't have to sit through more cinematic trailers without gameplay. The fourth I wasn't SUPER impressed with is unfortunately Death Stranding.... I am finding it kind of pretentious and leaves so many questions but I don't really care to know the answers yet.

The lack of splinter cell has left me very disappointed, cmon Nintendo!!!

[Mystic Mock]

Those kind of Games are too much on how incredibly difficult they are rather than on how fun a Game should be, it's an interesting fad type of idea, but it was bound to happen where people start to get bored of that type of Game.

[user104658]

Well yes but.... Have you played the MGS series? :joker:. I don't think it means it can't be a good game but I agree the drip feeding had been a bit much. They should just have teased it briefly when they first did (the Norman Foetus trailer), and then left it until near release and given a lot of proper detail.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Sony’s show was garbage

They've spent too long teasing it. I just don't care at this point. Whenever they talk about it in future conferences I'm just gonna use that time as a toilet break. The gameplay they did show seemed boring.

It's all very pretentious with nothing to show for it.

They just need to stop dancing about it and tell us what the hell Death Stranding is

I'm over it. We've had like two years of teases now, Enough is enough.

Resident Evil 2, it was announced a few years back but that was the first gameplay and Control which was the trailer with the psychic girl.

It was a very meh show tbh, These conferences don't work unless you've got a lot of reveals.

[Tom4784]

Hopefully Nintendo snatches our wigs today.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

A new rayman switch exclusive is coming!

[Scarlett.]

I think this year and next years conferences are gonna be less exciting for Sony and Microsoft, we're clearly getting close to the end of the generation now, and I think all the games that have been revealed from Sony's studios are the only ones we'll be seeing this gen. On the brightside, E3 2020 should be massive (like E3 2013). I'm thinking Starfield could end up being a launch title (or soon following launch) which is gonna be big, since this generation didn't really start off with any massive new games (I reckon TES VI might be 2021 too, maybe 2022)

[Scarlett.]

Those kind of Games are too much on how incredibly difficult they are rather than on how fun a Game should be, it's an interesting fad type of idea, but it was bound to happen where people start to get bored of that type of Game.

I think the difficulty of the Soulsborne games are a bit of a misconception, in the games, you're kind meant to die a lot, it helps you learn how to fight better, Demon's Souls was a bit less lenient as you had to buy healing items, rather than getting them at a bonfire, or from enemies. I'm still into the style of game and I'm glad they're going for a different sort of genre this time.

Resident evil 2 looks really good though.

I got into the series via Bloodborne, there was a learning curve, but I found it much easier than I was expecting, the games are a lot more forgiving than people give them credit for. In a way I think the whole "super difficult" reputation works in their favour. I went back to the start and played Demon's Souls, and now I've just started Dark Souls... and its kinda easy for me now :laugh:

[user104658]

I'm feeling sort of over consoles in general tbh :worry:... Not to be all "master race" but games look, play and mod so much better on PC its not even close, and with consoles now using standard cpu and gpu architecture, even when the consoles are brand new PC tech overtakes within a year.

Seeing FFXV on PC vs PS4 Pro pretty much sealed the deal for me. Its so much smoother in combat it's like playing a different game. And don't even get me started on Bethesda games on console... The differences are so huge that they're barely worth playing :shrug:.

Literally the only games I play on PS4 now are if they're PS4 exclusives. And then I still resent them being exclusives because they run at 30fps and I'm like... "PC would have better settings at 60 :hmph:".

[Scarlett.]

I still prefer consoles, I just prefer the plug and play aspect lol. Also, the price of consoles is much better than PCs (especially at the moment, thanks to bitcoin). I see the positives of PC, but I'm not ready for the leap lol

I see the positives of PC, but I'm not ready for the leap lolThe ease of use aspect has been out the window since the rise of Steam to be honest, there's no real difference between using Steam and using the console digital stores. Though I personally MISS the old days of fiddling around with DOS prompts, it was like a mini game... If you got the game to start you felt like a hacker. If sound was working, bonus points! :joker:

But these days the launcher does all the work :shrug:.

The price difference is big, though, I'll give you that. Its not a cheap hobby :umm2:.

Don't even mention bloody Bitcoin. I didn't realise that I had paid more than DOUBLE for my latest card upgrade as my last one until I randomly stumbled on the email receipt from years ago. Thanks crypto :(

RAM is sort of pricey these days too, used to be cheap as. Though SSDs are dirt cheap at the moment...

[Tom4784]

Those kind of Games are too much on how incredibly difficult they are rather than on how fun a Game should be, it's an interesting fad type of idea, but it was bound to happen where people start to get bored of that type of Game.

The difficulty never bothers me, it's how homogenised that genre is. Nioh, Bloodborne and Nioh should all feel like wildly different games but it's like playing the same game with different licks of paint.

Code Vein looks like it could be janky but decent though I guess, at least it's trying something different.

The ease of use aspect has been out the window since the rise of Steam to be honest, there's no real difference between using Steam and using the console digital stores. Though I personally MISS the old days of fiddling around with DOS prompts, it was like a mini game... If you got the game to start you felt like a hacker. If sound was working, bonus points! :joker:

But these days the launcher does all the work :shrug:.

The price difference is big, though, I'll give you that. Its not a cheap hobby :umm2:.

Don't even mention bloody Bitcoin. I didn't realise that I had paid more than DOUBLE for my latest card upgrade as my last one until I randomly stumbled on the email receipt from years ago. Thanks crypto :(

RAM is sort of pricey these days too, used to be cheap as. Though SSDs are dirt cheap at the moment...

The ease of playing is less to do with the software and more with the hardware hiccups that can happen, I don't wanna be doing a clean reinstall when I wanna play some FFXIV :laugh: Yeah, the prices for the hardware is getting a little ridiculous, but as long as bitcoin stays big I think it's gonna keep happening D:

What would it take for Nintendo to NOT win e3 at this point :joker:

I'm guessing they show Fire Emblem, Smash Bros, Pokemon, and Yoshi. Add just two reveals maybe and I think that's a better show than most of the conferences :joker:

[Tom4784]

I've heard some theories that Mortal Kombat 11 could make an appearance at Nintendo's conference along with Sub Zero appearing in Smash. I'm not sure how likely that is though but I suppose this is the last chance for MK11 to be announced at E3.

[Black Dagger]

Come thru Mario Party 11

[rk3388]

Come thru Mario Party 11



:umm2:

haha I don't think that's the top of my list right now - I would rather have a new Pikmin, or even new IP. UNLESS they go back to the game boards again and make it actually fun

[Ant.]

Pikmin, Animal Crossing and MOTHER 3 (it's just not realistic!) are my main hopes this year

But my builds are immaculate, obviously :hmph:. The closest I've come recently was because my 8 year old went to a site and downloaded a program that was offering her "FREE ROBUX!!!1!" :facepalm: which was of course a big ol' virus but I managed to weed it out without losing anything :joker:. Generally though, gaming systems are pretty much as stable as consoles these days if you don't go to dodgy websites and download dodgy stuff. Haha.

The hardware price issue I'm personally hoping will start to resolve eventually. If crypto ever starts to die out it'll solve the supply and demand issue, and if it continues to thrive I think we'll start to see more and more specialised hardware for bitcoin mining instead of people using gaming cards.

[Tom4784]

I just want more info on Pokemon and Bayonetta 3 tbh.

[Black Dagger]

:umm2:

Oh yeah Mario Party isn't a priority lol. I'd just like one to tide me over.

[Tom4784]

Nintendo Direct's coming on in a minute or so, gurls!

[Tom4784]

Daemon X Machina looks cute.

[Mystic Mock]

I still prefer consoles, I just prefer the plug and play aspect lol. Also, the price of consoles is much better than PCs (especially at the moment, thanks to bitcoin). I see the positives of PC, but I'm not ready for the leap lol

This.

[Ant.]

I finally get to try Fortnite!

#captaintoad4smash

[Mystic Mock]

The difficulty never bothers me, it's how homogenised that genre is. Nioh, Bloodborne and Nioh should all feel like wildly different games but it's like playing the same game with different licks of paint.

Code Vein looks like it could be janky but decent though I guess, at least it's trying something different.

I think that every genre in Video Gaming goes through this crisis at some point.

There'll be a Game in the genre that will come along and reinvent the genre.

[Ant.]

OH BOI

[Ant.]

Every character THEY DID THAT!

[Tom4784]

Smash has left me BALD.

[Tom4784]

Come THRU Daisy.

[Brother Leon]

Last of Us and Spider-Man got me so hype. Great ways to end the PS4 life cycle.

[Ant.]

They actually added Daisy! The absolute MADMEN!

[Ant.]

Is ridley coming...

[Ant.]

Sakurai really is That Bitch HUH

[Tom4784]

Ridley! :clap1:

[Ant.]

Remember when he said himself he was too big </3

[Tom4784]

Sakurai really is That Bitch HUH

Sakurai is Aja CONFIRMED?!

[Ant.]

me: please god... give me Pichu...
god, giving us Daisy, Ridley, Pichu and every fighter:

Tbh I think Nintendo just lost E3 for me (expecting them to win). I've owned every Smash Bros so this title just seems like I'm re-buying the same game I already bought over and over.

It was 2/3 of their Direct... The only game announcements were Mario Party and the Robo game....

[Tom4784]

I'm sad there's no Bayonetta news but that was a great showing by Nintendo.

Nintendo > Microsoft > Sony > Bethesda > Ubisoft >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Death by a dildo coated in acid. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> EA.

[Black Dagger]

If I wasn't a Smash fan that probably would have been a bust.

[Tom4784]

Oh and the fact they told us nothing new about Pokemon was a bit **** too but still, it was fun.

[Ant.]

Super Mario Party didn't do that?

[Ant.]

Oh and the fact they told us nothing new about Pokemon was a bit **** too but still, it was fun.

Mew is £10 DLC i guess

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

This e3 has been garbage :(

[rk3388]

I'd say Sony>Ubisoft>Microsoft>>>>>>>Nintendo>Bethesda>Square Enix>>>>EA

[Ant.]

Imagine an Adventure mode with these characters!

[Barry.]

Come THRU Daisy.

Daisy is in smash bros? So getting it.

[Ant.]

Daisy is in smash bros? So getting it.

Shes a sorta clone of Peach

So is Ridley

Daisy Ridley is coming?

[Mystic Mock]

Super Mario Party looks fun.

[Ant.]

Ganondorf is using his sword in attacks?! :o

[Scarlett.]

Sony are skipping E3 2019 :o

[Barry.]

Sony are skipping E3 2019 :o

Why?

[Scarlett.]

To be honest, not sure, there's no PSX this year either.

If I had to guess, we're gonna see the PS5 announcement next summer
